Spring is here, the grass is riz, it's still ten days until the Prelim iz.

What better time to roll out another quiz?  As usual, you need to work out the common factor with these players.

Answers in a PM please so we can keep it going a bit longer.

    Hardtack has correctly identified the connection and is today's silver medallist.

    As usual, Mazer Rackham was first to crack it open in seconds flat and wins the gold medal.

    Bronze still up for grabs.

    I've just had something unexpected crop up and will be away from the computer until tomorrow.  Rather than keep people dangling, I'll reveal that the answer is all the players share a surname with a comedian (their names in purple).

    Nice to see you recognise Frankie Boyle in your side Demonstone, albeit on the bench. Personally I'd be building my side around him. As for the answer to your quiz however I have no idea unfortunately.

    If only I'd thought about it a bit more. It's not like there are a lot of people to choose from with the surname Dangerfield.

    Please keep it up Demonstone. I enjoy the challenge.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
